BBPress and WordPress = same creators … so a simple question : why, during the install, would be not possible to have 2 buttons radios with …

Option One : create a new DB users

Option Two : use the actual WP DB users

?!

[drtech]

Yes it’s working now.

[suleiman]

hmmm…I’m having the same problem, where I get the error about the bbpress database not existing. I’m integrating with WPMU instead of regular wordpress but that shouldn’t really cause an issue should it?

Is there a place we can hardcode it to wp_ instead of bb_?

[Trent Adams]

I have been using Alex King’s Mobile edition for WordPress for quite some time and love it! I was wondering if someone would like to look at the plugin and see how it could work with bbPress. It seems pretty straight forward.

Another plugin called WordPress PDA is similar and might be easy as well.

Interesting stuff! Any takers?

[Trent Adams]

So it is working the way you want now?

In terms of integrating site with calling WP functions, it is a little out of my realm. If you search this site and can’t find anything useful, you can always head over to the forums with massive information!

I think i have it. By removing the www from the wordpress link fixed it . (http://koma-inu.org/bbpress) Now comes up with welcome header if you are logged in.

[drtech]

I have set up a web site integrating WordPress and bbPress.

Integration seems to be working – we have added a link back to the wordpress pages.

What I am noticing is when we link (htttp://www.koma-inu.org/bbpress) in from wordpress to bbpress, even though I am logged in, the front page displays the user name password and login windows. When I click on a topic or forum link, the header displays that I am properly logged in with a welcome message. Is there a way of adding a check to the front page to see that I am logged in already, right from the beginning?

@ear1grey

I read something about problems with the google policy but I am not really at home with this whole policy stuff … do you know what I have to change so that there wont be trouble?

@Trent

“The more templates the better!”

I think so too :o)

It really helped me with WordPress that there have been so many themes when I started.

I have made another one btw

Simple template – just made some changes on the main template.

[aleko]

I’ve installed bbpress 0.73 and i integrate it with wordpress also in styles.

I add <?php require_once(‘/Path to wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’) ?> for use “get_header”, or “get_footer” in bbpress templates.

Now i discover that it’s incompatible with BBLANG because if i try to set it on it_IT (my language) i get this error Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class streamreader in /…./forum/bb-includes/streams.php on line 26

Anyway if i remove the first lines i added in config.php the language work correctly but i cannot use “get_header” “get_footer” in bbress template.

Anyone can help me ?

[bakedlogdotcom]

I was considering using Lyceum instead of wordpress-mu… would the integration with bbPress still be possible and *easy*?

I’ve installed bbpress with wordpress integration, the database integration works correctly thanks your guide. But… when i try to see my posts i have this error:

(

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/mhd-01/www.alessandropagano.net/htdocs/blog/wp-includes/gettext.php(307) : eval()’d code on line 1

1 post)

you can try to show this at http://www.alessandropagano.net/blog/forum/

I’ve heard that this could be related with language settings… but my config.php have the default setting (define(‘BBLANG’, ”)

Thanks in advance, i hope to hear you soon!

You need to change all links for bbpress and put bbpress in front of them, so they look like

^bbpress/tags

etc…. and removed

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /bbpress

as you can only ever have one of those in an .htaccess file, and connect it to your wordpress one as well. If you get all of that :X

[Trent Adams]

If you mean adding forum as WP page, maybe check out:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/166?replies=6

As well, do a search in the wordpress.org forums because I am sure there is more examples in that forums.

UTW for tags in WordPress.

[Zambu]

Yes, I think I have them set correct in the config file as:

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = true;

My links look like the following example:

http://www.domain.com/forum/topic/70?replies=3

I think these are what they call “pretty permalinks”. But still Google ignores the entire /forum/ subfolder and does not index it. On the other hand, Google indexes the rest of the website very well including my blog which is using WordPress.

For the record, I have already checked to be sure the robots.txt file is not blocking spider access to the /forum/ subfolder.

Any other ideas anyone???

[Matt Brett]

I’ve got a new installation of bbPress which is integrated into a mammoth WordPress site and I’m quite pleased with the outcome. The only real roadblock I’ve hit cropped up while testing.

If a user doesn’t close an HTML tag in their post, the formatting is carried through to the rest of the site (yikes!). As you can imagine, things can get ugly real quick when this happens. And it will happen, without a doubt.

Anyone aware of a fix for this? Did some searching and browsing but didn’t find any mention of this.

[pilkster]

but i think we should some how figure out a way to integrate the themes for wordpress and forums..

Great idea

Hi again Trent

I’ve had another go. Here are the steps I have taken:

Created a new account on my server (taxdeduct.net)

Installed WP 2.0.5 via fantastico

Downloaded BB from this site

Created database and user through cpanel. Added user to database with all privileges >> sidenote: https://bbpress.org/documentation/installation/ does not mention setting up the database. A bit confusing.

Copied config-sample.php to config.php, edited with my info

Uploaded to host

Ran bb-admin/install.php

Downloaded https://trac.bbpress.org/attachment/ticket/438/bbpress-integration.php – uploaded to WP plugins dir, activated and configured with tables prefix.

Created new user on bbpress… couldn’t log in to WP.

Created new user on WP… couldn’t log in to bbpress.

My head hurts from pulling at my hair

Another question: do you have to allow new user registrations on your blog for the plugin to work?

[so1o]

in function post_form –

$page == get_page_number( $topic->topic_posts + $add )

this is probably being evaluated as false.

i say this because this your paging is messed up..

http://booksinbed.com/wordpress/bbpress/topic.php?id=3&page=2

if you go to the above link the number 1 should have link in the page navigation. in your case page 2 has..

debug the get_page_number function whats getting loose..

[Justin Tadlock]

I’ve narrowed it down the exact problem. Well, I don’t know why, but it seems to be the source. In “header.php” I include with php a file called “menu.php.” Inside of “menu.php” I have my “recent entries” from my wordpress blog. When I delete this particular bit of code everything works fine.

<div class="menu3">

<h3 class="menuHeader">Recent Reviews</h3>

<ul class="list">

<?php $temp_query = $wp_query; ?>

<?php query_posts('cat=3&showposts=10&order=ABC'); ?>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<li>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>

<br />Review by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>

</li>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php $wp_query = $temp_query; ?>

</ul>

</div> <!-- menu3 -->

When the post limit exceeds 15, is the only time this seems to be a problem. This runs fine on all the other pages, or when the post limit is 15 or below.

[Justin Tadlock]

I just started a new site at http://booksinbed.com/wordpress/bbpress (the forum pat of the site) using bbpress.

The problem I’m having can be found on this page:

http://booksinbed.com/wordpress/bbpress/topic.php?id=3

What is happening is when I exceed “The number of topics that show on each page,” which was set at 15 in my config.php file, the posting form disappears.

I am at a loss as of what to do to fix this.

[larmir]

My database is UTF-8. I also have the same database shares tables with WordPress and BBPress. WordPress does not have this problem. Though it happens with all apostrophes and quotation marks on BBPress – new posts and edits. With edits, it will keep adding slashes each time a post/thread is edited.

Any ideas where to look? I’d really like to get this solved.

BTW, what is the ‘PHP magic quotes issue?’

[spencerp]

IMHO, the best thing to do first is, make sure you’ve imported the phpBB stuff, into a fresh bbpress install, that doesn’t have the integration with WordPress.. then, integrate it with WordPress..

As is now, *some* people are still having problems with the bbpress+wordpress integratation deal.. again, IMHO.. I would just play it safe, by doing the phpBB (import) to a normal bbpress install first.. then go from there.. ?

Trent, what do you think?
